Are you able to test if this problem occurs with ekiga in gutsy? The gutsy release contains a new ekiga which fixes a lot of problems.

The crash seems similar to http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=430644

Confirmed... this bug exists in Gutsy

Ekiga doesn't properly start. It seems like it chokes on initisalizing the built-in laptop webcam.

[Martin Mai (mrkanister-deactivatedaccount-deactivatedaccount)]

The issue that you reported is one that should be reproducible with the live environment of the Desktop CD of the development release - Jaunty Jackalope - which now ships ekiga 3.0.*. It would help us greatly if you could test with it. Thanks in advance.

From upstream: this was fixed in 2.0.9!
